They'll be on the same side as the Nazi concentration camp guards. You know, the ones who where "just following orders".
Is that cynical? Maybe, but I know something about history, and despots can't have their way without the police and/or military. Many on FR revere the police, but I'm not one of them.
I don’t revere them. Where I am from the police are highly politicized and bureaucratized. Not a good sign as this separates them from the people.
On the other hand, I’ve met plenty of people who wouldn’t think twice about shoving me in an oven since I don’t agree with them.
